This film was based on the novel of the same name by Dean Koontz. I haven't read the novel, so I can't properly judge it on how good of an adaption it was.
Honestly, the only reason I watched this movie was because I was chilling with a friend a few years ago, and we saw a movie with Anton Yelchin in it on Netflix or something (she'd met him twice, I'm still super jealous). It was definitely an entertaining, quick-moving paranormal flick that I immediately fell in love with and purchased a few days after I saw it.

This book wonderfully wrapped up the series.

All of the big mysteries and questions were answered in this book and the series was ended very well. The wonderful authors even had an ask any questions session on their Facebook page for any unanswered questions that were left over.

This book even introduces even more new characters, at first I was a bit hesitant however it became apparent that they were important to the story and the explanation of the Talented.

Overall I have fully enjoyed this series and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys paranormal YA books.

I seem to be having trouble getting into a lot of my books at the minute, mainly paranormal, which is why it's taken me a week or so to read the 200-odd pages in this, which is ridiculous really when I used to read that in several hours.

I think sometimes a bit too much happens in these books. Rylee and the gang jump from one scenario to another with no breathing space and sometimes they cope so well, it's a bit unrealistic.

I do like the series but I think it's going on hiatus for a bit.

I'd been eyeing this book for a while when it continually moved about on my Amazon "recommended" screen. The cover is eye catching and the price was good, so why not?

I didn't read the synopsis before buying so I had no idea what it was going to be about but let me tell you, I wasn't disappointed with it. It had everything I like: lots of paranormal beings, a little sprinkle of romance, a fair bit of butt kicking and an interesting storyline. Sorted!

I will definitely be continuing the series in the near future!
